I used to have a '14 Abarth 500 - fun little car. Traded it in on a new Focus RS. Now looking to sell that and pickup a Gen I Ford Lightning.
2014 are the most common (because they produced the most that year), but it was the first year, and as such, some of the earlier bikes have/had some issues (bad starter seal design - cheap...
I upgraded from my xb9sl to a 1190SX about two years ago, and have never regretted it. The xb was my first bike and had only been riding for about two years when I upgraded.
Not exactly. The one taken to the shows was the actual Black Lightning (VIN#001 - I know because I went to the show and took a pic of the VIN)
The other bike did begin as a SX (2015 #036) and was...
I had a xb9sl (earlier version of the xb12scg) and I've sat on the Black Lightning - they feel the same. I could flat foot both of them, whereas a regular height xb had me on the balls of my feet,...
I went from this...

Chase, if you would be interested in selling your SCG to buy one of the taller models, I might be interested. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you're thinking of it.
It does. I had a '03 xb9sl and you definitely sit lower "in" the bike on the Black Lightning. I don't think it's different enough for me to have both my Laguna Blue SX and a Black Lightning, but I...
It's here waiting for you! I got to sit on it, and I really like the lowered suspension.
So the Garmin will give you GPS. Will you have any sort of gauges for other functions like speed, odometer, fuel, etc?
I've only had my 1190SX since January, but I've had a few all day rides so far on it, and it's been really good. The stock seat has been comfortable for the first 2-3 hours easily. After that I'm...
From the press release back in September...
"This fall we have something ‘Quick, Dark, and Low’ in the works that should be exciting for urban street riders, and we are making real progress on...
Or you could attach magnets to the underside of the airbox and continue running magnetic bags. I'll hook one D ring around the handlebar for extra security at speed just in case, but when off the...
The things that makes this list difficult for me is that the different markets are all jumbled up together. I wish there was a different tab for US markets (49 and 50 states together), Euro market,...
Unbound, what do you have?
What city/state was it in?
I love my SX. Just did some chain maintenance yesterday and going to take it out for my day off tomorrow. I'd like to ride it more often, but it's threatened to rain a lot here lately.
Sold and shipped!
You're asking on an EBR sub forum, so obviously you know our preference, but the reason I went with my EBR was bang for buck and uniqueness. If I was buying another bike right now, I'd buy a second...
I can understand the frustration.
The dealership where I bought mine was awesome, but they honestly just want to get rid of it to free up floor space for Ducati. Can't blame them - they've had it...
BTW, how was the transaction at White's? I know they've had the bike for a while. Did they seem to like the bike or just want it gone?
(I was secretly hoping you weren't going to put the lights on). :)
When I first got the bike, I couldn't stand the mirrors, exhaust resonator, and license plate bracket. Now that I have those...
Nice Peter! What are your plans for the EBR after break in? Adding blue lights like you had on the Buell?
Here's the link I messaged you about (didn't have it handy earlier). Hope to see you there!
